English Boots in Ecvnt.

The supply of bogus boots carried to
Egypt by one Of the fast drafts Of our
forces there ought not to result in fortune
to the unscrupulous maker, as a similar
piece of enterprise did during the Crimean
war On investigation being made, ac-
cording to the correspondent of CON
temporary, into the badly shod condition
of the men, it was discovered that the
boots were machine made, which is con-
trary to the contract for boots to be used
on active service. But, beyond this, they
were composed of thin leaves of leather,
filled out with a substance something like
pitch, rendering them absolutely useless
for hard work. This is case in which
the guilty party can be traced and exposed
or punished without the slightest diff
Guilty, and the pitch boots need not join
the bayonets, the cartridges, the hay and
all the other things which no official fellow
can understand. Pail Mall Gazette.

A young French artist in town is at
present supplying society with ivory min
iatures, and although they come exceed
ingly high he is scarcely able to keep up
with the demand. Painting ON ivory, if
not a lost. art, was until the present re-
vival almost a forgotten one Such work
requires exact taste, abundant patience
and peculiar skill. The skill and the
knowledge of the art required of course
died away with the falling off of de-
mand for the kind of work in question.
The cheapness and apparent value and
permanency of photographs struck fatal
blow at the one time popularity of ivory
miniatures. But with the lapse of years
it has been found that photographs ere
not permanent records, and people, be-
sides, have more money and more taste
than when photographs took first place in
their affections. The transparency and
beauty of these miniatures are q delight
to the eye, but the commonplace buyer
with the commonplace pocketbook is
rather staggered with the information
that miniature three or four inches
square costs $500 to $500 TIE artist re-
ferred to has just finisheda miniature OF

Strawberry Culture.

There is, perhaps, says Mr. John Will
cox, of Nineland, n. j., no practice so
fatal to successful strawberry growing as
the one almost universally adopted of al
lowing the ground to remain uncultivated
until after the fruit is gathered. This is
done to avoid the sanding of the fruit, but
it must be borne in mind that under this
practice, with the droughts which occur
two years in five, during the ripening of
the fruit, the crop is practically lost where
otherwise, by the retention of moisture in
the soil, through thorough system of
pulyerizing and cultivation, full crop Of
the best fruit could have been obtained.
In connection with this we observe the
most important fact of all, that during
the prevailing droughts the short crop
causes the market TO rule high, so that
under this system of thorough cultivation
we are doubly rewarded for the extra la
Dor expended in the production of full
crOD.

From Demorest's Monthly for May.
We are not only defrauded in our butter
which is made of oeomargarine, and our
lard and olive oil, that are really cotton
seed oil, but many of the sweets we use
are not sugar, but glucose. This sub
stance is made principally from corn, and
employs capital of $50, ,000, 900 and So.
600 persons to manufacture it. Glucose
serves as an adulterant in sugars, candies
preserved fruits, and many other articles
of food. 1t is sold for heney in some
cases, and for sugar to people who do not
dream they are getting corn-sugar. We
export 100000 pounds of this sweet
fraud every year. and its entire use is for
adulterating purposes. Fortunately
neither glucose, oleomargarine, nor cot
ton.seed ell are unwholesome. They
undoubtedly serve a useful purpose, but
their chief commercial value is, that they
are cheap limitations palmed of on the
public as the real thing.

Description Of q :. C;reek Dinner..

The latest of Washington novelties is a
Greek dinner. The table, at one given
there recently, was decorated with gar
lands Of roses, and the center ornament
was Grecian Tyre, with golden strings
The floral decorations were gaTlands Of
roses, and the walls were hung with rugs.
Couches were placed at intervals
throughout the room. The guests sat on
great chairs, covered with rugs, and each
wore a wreath of laurel, tied with purple
ribbon. The menu was written in Greek
(which, Of course, was as plain as the
roses on the table TO understand), and
among the dishes were wild boar, roast
kid and hare An intermission Of half an
hour took place at about the middle CT the
dinner, when burning Oriental drinks
were served in silver tankards New
